The cast of Netflix's On My Block return for a fourth and final season, with some new additions as well as some departing faces. Sierra Capri, Jason Genao, Brett Gray, Diego Tinoco and Jessica Marie Garcia all return as their characters alongside the rest of your OMB faves. Here's who is in the cast for season 4 of On My Block...
Sierra Capri plays Monse Finnie. The role of Monse is Sierra's very first on-screen starring role. She also played an extra in 2016’s Hidden Figures. When Netflix began casting, she was living in Atlanta, Georgia, after having completed her junior year as a biology major at Armstrong State University in Savannah, Georgia. Sierra also appeared in 2019's American Skin.
Jason Genao plays Ruby Martinez. The 25-year-old Dominican-born American actor is probably most known for his role as Napoleon in Netflix’s The Get Down. He’s also had roles in Logan and Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. Jason is 5ft 1 1/2 inches tall, in case you were wondering.
Diego Tinoco plays Cesar Diaz. Fans of Teen Wolf will probably recognise him as Mateo who made one appearance in season 6. He’s also made appearances in short films such as Welcome To Valhalla (2017) and Drizzle Of Hope (2015).

His most recent role was as Pete Astudillo in Netflix's Selena: The Series.
Jessica Marie Garcia plays the hilarious Jasmine Flores. Jessica is an American actress hailing from Florida who you’ll probably know as Willow from all four seasons of Disney Channel’s Original series Liv and Maddie.

Jahking Guillory plays Latrelle, a member of the Prophets, the rival gang of the Santos. Jahking, who hails from California, is best known for his starring role in the 2016 film, Kicks. The actor also appeared in Lena Waithe’s series “The Chi” as Coogie, Facebook Watch's Five Points and The CW's Black Lightning.
Peggy Blow plays Ruby’s Abelula. She’s had iconic roles in both seasons of American Crime Story, How To Get Away With Murder, Castle, Dexter, Criminal Minds, Desperate Housewives, That’s So Raven and Seinfeld across a three-decade career.
